Our Top 10 Summer Trends

If you’ve torn through your wardrobe and felt like you can’t find anything but the drab loungewear from lockdown, keep reading. We know it’s been a crazy, unprecedented year so far. We know that everyone’s fed up being stuck inside. And we know everyone is more than ready to make their comeback to (sort of) ordinary life in style. So here’s 10 of our favourite trends we’ve seen so far. 

1. Chunky Boots with a Feminine Dress 

This is a classic 90’s grunge aesthetic so don’t be afraid to mix it up a bit! Pair a pretty maxi dress with a cinched waist with a pair of combat boots and you’re set to go. 

1. Oversized Gold Chain Necklace

Gold chain necklaces never go out of fashion. Why not try an oversized one? These accessories compliment any outfit, no matter where you’re headed. Wear it alone or with a collection of other jewels and that’s all you need. 

1. Wafty White Dresses

Broderie Anglaise specifically. Not your boring old nightdress by the way. This carefree summer look only works when styled properly. 

1. Sheer Overlays

Put an outfit on, then wear a dress over it. The concept is simple, but the effect is chic. Sheer floral slip with a pair of wide leg jeans are the perfect ensemble for a casual summer’s day. 

1. Denim jumpsuits

Now, we know these are already popular, but they’re going nowhere. If it’s not broken, don’t fix it, right? 

1. Neon yellow

Controversial though this is, this colour’s here to stay for Summer 2020. You’ll be hard to miss and definitely brighten everyone’s day.

1. Tiny Sunglasses

Dr Vanessa Brown wrote, "One thing you can guarantee with fashion is that when things have reached an extreme aesthetically, they'll swing the opposite direction.’’ Looks like we’ve come full circle since the 90’s and we don’t know about you, but we’re loving it!

1. Waistcoats 

This will terrify many and bring back '00s flashbacks. You read that correctly—the waistcoat is making a comeback. Hear us out: layer it with a flowy blouse and a pair of jeans… we might just be onto something. 

1. Short Shorts

 Short shorts made a comeback on the runways of Chanel, Saint Laurent, and more. These bite-sized bottoms offer a cheeky vibe to your outfit. And if you don’t want to go there, we get it. Have a peek at some bermuda shorts instead.

1. Crotchet

Keep it cool this summer with this funky fabric. Gone are the days when crocheted pieces were reserved for beach cover ups. Try it!
